-Pepper pov-
Ever since I saw Tony again I have been deep in thought. I have been trying to figure out what I have left to give. What I want out of my life truthfully. I want to make sure I am doing everything I truly want to do.

Morgan has been glued to my side and we have finally been going to therapy. It has been much needed for me. I have been throwing out things I no longer need of Tony's. Things that mean holding myself back.

I am about to throw another CD out when i get stopped. I look up to see Peter frowning. He takes it from me and walks over to the radio. He places it in the radio and pushes play.

I go to speak but he ignores me. He moves around and opens a suit maker. I am so confused on what is happening until I hear the song start. Tears fill my eyes as he moves just like him.

-Radio playing-

Back in black, I hit the sack
I've been too long, I'm glad to be back
Yes, I'm let loose from the noose
That's kept me hanging about
I'm just looking at the sky 'cause it's getting me high
Forget the hearse, 'cause I'll never die
I got nine lives, cat's eyes
Abusing every one of them and running wild

'Cause I'm back, yes I'm back
Well, I'm back, yes I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
Well, I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black

Back in the back of a Cadillac
Number one with a bullet, I'm a power pack
Yes, I'm in a bang with a gang
They've got to catch me if they want me to hang
'Cause I'm back on the track and I'm beatin' the flack
Nobody's gonna get me on another rap
So, look at me now, I'm just making my play
Don't try to push your luck, just get out of my way

'Cause I'm back, yes I'm back
Well, I'm back, yes I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
Well, I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black

Well, I'm back, yes I'm back
Well, I'm back, yes I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
Well, I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black, yow

Ah, yeah
Oh, yeah
Take my love
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
Ah, hey yeah
Ooh, yeah

Well, I'm back (I'm back)
Back, well I'm (I'm back)
Back (I'm back)
Back (I'm back)
Back (I'm back)
Back, back in black
Yes, I'm back in black

I've hit the sack

"If you are going to throw stuff out at least honor him some" I am left looking at a small suit of armor "It is the last suit he wanted built if his machine was to be destroyed"

"Why do this to me?" I look up at Peter with anger I never knew I had "Why? Why hurt me like this? I am getting better! I have been learning to cope! WHY?!"

"BECAUSE THIS IS NOT OK!" I am stunned by his anger back at me "He died so those stones would be gone! He died to make sure we had a chance! I COULD HAVE TAKEN HIS PLACE! ANY OF US COULD! But you do not get to act like he never existed! You do not get to take him away from her! Morgan deserves to know about her father! Do not remove him from her life....I know what that is like"

"Oh Peter" I pull him into a hug and rub his back as he breaks down sobbing "I need to move on"

"Move on, not away" he pulls back some and I see the tears more prevalent "Please"

"Ok" I smile and wipe some tears away from his face "Now how about we relax and watch some tv?"

"You act like I am a child" I raise a eyebrow and he sighs "Looney Toons is funny!"

"Go start it up for us with some hot chocolate" Peter nods and leave the room. I look over at the picture of Tony and me on our wedding day "I found you again Tony just like we knew I would if this happened"

I shutdown his machine and grab the suit. It is Morgan size of about teen years. Tony probably had this drawn up. I smile and put it in a case before going to join Peter.

I will get a new therapist tomorrow. One that actually will work for me. I will also call a board meeting of STARK Enterprise. I think it is time I finally found out what the sun project that was proposed is.

It is about having the sun in the palm of your hand by Doctor Olivia Octavious. I wonder if fish would be bad for catering? Guess only one way to find out. I have a really good feeling about this.
